F9 The Fast Saga

Just finished watching "F9 - The Fast Saga" released by Universal.
I suspect one of the reasons why "The Fast and Furious" franchise has expanded in an sprawling movie epic is that its a soap opera filled with all the usual unexpected twists and turns with angst filled with lots and lots of over-the-top psycho-melodrama.
For example, who knew that Dom Toretto had a brother Jakob who suddenly reappears as an elite assassin who just might be responsible for the death of their father - only the past is never just black and white and with the sudden disappearance of Mr. Nobody causes Dom and his team - family - to spring into action, but they do not know that Cipher is back in the game and is still pulling the strings in an attempt to kill Dom and his family.
Oh yes, and what other movie do you know that would actually have the chutzpah to launch a car into space on a homemade rocket with homemade spacesuits in an attempt to disable a satellite capable of disrupting the world?
Great mindless fun.
Recommended.
Five Stars.
